FOREWORD
This Indian Standard ( First Revision ) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on 21
February 1989, after the draft finalized by the Electric Welding Equipment Sectional Committee had
been approved by the Electtotechnical Division Council.
This standard was first published in 1971. In this revision effort has besn made to align the
requirements with IS 4559 : 1986 ‘Specification for single operator rectifier type dc arc welding
power source ( first revision )‘.
This standard deals with ac and dc arc welding power sources incorporating
solid state rectifiers.
Rectifier type arc welding power source could be either with ac and dc output or dc output only.
This standard is intended to cover the former type only, while 1s 4559 : 1986 deals with the latter
type.
In preparing this standard, assistance has been derived from the following:
a) IS0 700-1982 Power sour_ces for manual metal arc welding with covered electrodes and for the
TIG process. International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
b) BS 638 : Part 2 : 1979 Arc-welding
power sources, equipment and accessories, Part 2
Specification for air cooled power sources for manual metal-arc welding with covered electrodes and for TIG welding. British Standards Institution.
c) EW I-1 983 Electric arc-welding power sources.

Electric Manufacturers’
Association,
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the
final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in
accordance with IS 2 : 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values ( revised )‘. The number of
significant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value
in this standard.
